Our wood carved pectoral chest crosses are perfect for customers who are looking for simple and elegant designs. We use quality wood such as pear wood and oak. Carvings are rendered by hand to ensure unique and superior results. The brass and German silver pectoral chest crosses we offer are hand-cast and hand-polished by experienced craftsmen whose talent and dedication to Orthodox ecclesiastical traditions is a guarantee of high quality workmanship. Designs made from brass feature silver or gold gilding that add to their beauty and durability.

Replicas of the XVII Century Designs

Pectoral chest crosses are available with or without accompanying chains. For designs that do not feature chains, customers can purchase chains with gold or silver gilding from the same collection. We also offer pectoral chest crosses that are authentic copies of the XVII century Byzantine pectoral chest crosses. These are skillfully rendered by master craftsmen with deep understanding of Byzantine liturgical art traditions – the results are truly stunning and outstanding.

Premium Ivory and Jewelry Styles

Our ivory pectoral chest crosses and jewelry pectoral chest crosses are a class apart. Designs made from ivory exude elegance whereas jewelry designs appear vibrant and colorful. We use high quality stones and choose rich jewel tones which makes them look absolutely stunning. Each stone is attached by hand to guarantee durability. Details such as filigree work, enamel and hand-painting elevate their appearance. The pectoral chest crosses we offer are shipped in high quality leather packaging.
